I am another person who would give this bread 10 stars if I could. I did make a few changes to it however. I used honey instead of brown sugar, no lecithin, and the Vitamin C was in my Gluten. I used regular King Arthur Stone Ground Whole Wheat. I also used Smart Balance Oil. This bread has a fantastic texture. It is not "heavy" at all, and makes a delightful sandwich, toast etc. I have made this once a day since I found it. (Large Family, thank goodness for bread machines!) I also baked it in the oven ( I don't like my bread machine's bread pan.) at 350 for 40 minutes.

This makes an awesome whole wheat loaf - much lighter than the typical WW loaf, and the extra fat in the recipe means it keeps fresh longer. I used whole milk powder instead of skim milk, and omitted the lecithin, but I think the end result is the same.

This recipe is outstanding. For anyone having trouble finding Vit C powder, just crush a chewable vit C from WalMart. I also ground my own flour which made it even lighter, cut the oil and sweetener in half and used honey instead of sugar. Has become our standard with consistent quality and wonderful soft texture encased in a nice crust.

This was a very good WW loaf. I saved it to my cookbook to use again.

I LOVE this bread- I do use milk instead of the water, and skim milk powder, but even without the vitamin c, it is a great sandwich bread. I add honey, and lower the oil a little, just when I am wanting a loaf for the-best-toast- ever! Definately worth trying, very simple, and goes together like a dream

I'd give this recipe 10 stars if I could!!! Absolutely delicious. Even my husband, who turns up his nose at whole wheat bread (too dense), declared this recipe "a keeper". I declare it "a masterpiece"! This recipe should be included with every bread machine sold. I omitted the lecithin (soy allergy) and added a little extra water and a pinch less yeast simply because of our altitude. Came out perfect. Thanks for sharing.

Just made this in my bread machine using wheat flower that I ground myself. Skipped the lecithin. Substituted 1/2 canola and 1/2 olive oil because that was all that I had. The loaf turned out PERFECT! The best loaf that I have ever made. And the texture and taste is also wonderful.

100 stars for this one! I have been looking and looking for a 100% whole wheat recipe and at last I have found it. I followed this exactly and came out with a wonderful tasting loaf and the texture was perfect. I have a horizontal bread machine and the loaf came up and tried to burst through the top. Light, airy and devine. Thank you for sharing.

pretty light for whole wheat bread machine bread. I skipped the lecithin and used one cup of white bread flour and 3-1/4 cup whole wheat flour
